Indian shuttler Shreyanshi Pardeshi had her superb run in the USD 17,500 Tata Open India Challenge halted when she was beaten in four games by Malaysia's Soniia Cheah in the women's singles final at the Cricket Club of India's courts yesterday.

The 18-year-old Indore girl, a trainee at national badminton coach P Gopichand's academy in Hyderabad for five years, was beaten by her much taller Kuala Lumpur-born rival, seeded fourth, 11-3, 6-11, 11-6, 11-7 in 45 minutes.
